The former Leinster and Scottish coach Matt Williams believes we still have a massive problem with the scrums and until that’s fixed the game won’t be fixed ..

Here are some of the comments online ..

SA scrums every nation into submission. Maybe other nations should learn how to scrum? When AB ran circles around sides did world rugby need to change the laws? No, sides got better at defence. If you take away the scrum you take away rugby union. SA props are professionals at what they do. The SA scrum, scrums as a unit. Maybe teams should put more focus on how to combat the scrum!

While I agree scrums are a problem its not for the reason Matt makes it out to be.
Officiatimg of scrums needs to be tightened, a lot. As well as resets and penalizing.
I am of the opinion that penalties should not be converted to scrums at all.
Scrums should not be reset, a determination should be made immediately and the offendong team punished (one and done model)
Scrumhalfs should be punished with a strict penalty for crooked feeds.
Dangerous scrum tactics shoupd be yellow/red carded from the kickoff

Scrums are at the coreifunion rugby, you bloody fool. Scrimmages with everybody heaving and shoving and binding was rugby in the beginning. Why don’t you know that, fool. Scrums are a refinement together with backline play. We don’t want league type rugby without scrums, lineouts, mauls, breakdown play etc. NO!

This guy makes me laugh. Ge must be the most irrelevant person on all rugby chats. He seriously lack knowledge of the game. I mean his track record says it all.
